Error description
Rational developer for System zEnterprise (RDz) v8.5 When using the Enterprise Explorer view, which is only available in the Enterprise version of RDz, any files or folders that start with a '.' such as .RemoteMapping are not displayed in the Enterprise Development Perspective-?Enterprise Projects view. Therefore, the Pushable Manifest Editor cannot be opened. These files can be opened in version 8.0.x and in RDz 8.5 standard edition from the z/OS Projects Perspective-?zOS Projects view. Workaround: You can access these files/folder from the Navigator view. To open the Navigator view select from the menu bar: Window-?Show view-?Other-?General-?Navigator
Local fix
Problem summary
RDz had a fixed filter on any files starting with a "."
Problem conclusion
Changed the filter to only exclude ".project" files since we really don't want users updating those files. The problem listed in this APAR has been resolved with IBM Rational Developer for System z V8.5.1 Refresh Pack which is available from the Recommended Fixes support download page: http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=2294&uid=swg27006335
